On the afternoon of April 15, the Office of the Department of Hydrometeorology ( Ministry of Agriculture and Environment ) informed about the weather trends during the April 30 and May 1 holidays (from April 30 to May 4).

Widespread heat wave across the country before the holidays

The meteorological agency said that the April 30 and May 1 holidays coincide with the transitional season in the North and Central regions, so the weather across the country will have many notable fluctuations, especially a widespread heat wave right before the holidays.

It is forecasted that from April 17, mountainous areas from Nghe An to Quang Ngai provinces will begin to experience widespread heat waves, with the highest temperature commonly ranging from 35-37 degrees Celsius, with some places above 37 degrees Celsius.

From April 18, heat waves will spread to the Central region, the Northern Delta and midlands (including the capital Hanoi) and the Southern region.

The highest temperature forecast for the day in the North (including Hanoi) is 35-37 degrees Celsius, some places above 38 degrees Celsius, the Central region is 36-39 degrees Celsius, some places above 39 degrees Celsius, the Southern region is 35-37 degrees Celsius.

"This heat wave in the North and Central regions is likely to last until April 23, while the South is likely to continue experiencing heat for many more days.

From around April 23 to 28, due to the influence of weak cold air, the North is likely to experience showers and thunderstorms, with temperatures dropping slightly. In the Central region, the heat wave will narrow down, only occurring locally" - the meteorological agency warned.

Southern region experiences widespread heat during the holiday season

Regarding the weather during the April 30 and May 1 holidays (from April 29 to May 4): in the North, there will be little rain, and temperatures will rise again. Around May 3 to 4, there may be hot weather.

The Central region continues to experience heat waves but not as severe as in mid-April. The Southern region continues to experience widespread heat waves with temperatures ranging from 34-37 degrees Celsius.

"During the transitional season, extreme weather events such as thunderstorms, tornadoes, lightning, hail, and strong gusts of wind can occur, especially in the late afternoon.

At the same time, widespread heat in the coming days can have adverse impacts on people's health, increase the risk of fires and forest fires, and affect production and daily life.

People need to regularly monitor weather forecasts to proactively prevent and ensure safety for production, daily life and tourism activities during the holidays," Mr. Huong noted./.

Strengthening forecasts and warnings of heavy rain, thunderstorms, and hail during the holidays

To ensure that weather information is provided promptly, accurately and fully to serve people, tourism activities, travel as well as event organization during the April 30 and May 1 holidays, the Department of Hydrometeorology has directed the National Center for Hydrometeorological Forecasting to coordinate with relevant units to develop a detailed plan for weather forecasting and warning during the period from April 15 to May 5, 2025.

According to this plan, from April 20, the center will increase the frequency of issuing forecast bulletins, closely monitor and provide early warnings of dangerous weather phenomena such as heavy rain, thunderstorms, tornadoes, strong winds at sea, hail, etc. to help people, local authorities and related units proactively prevent and minimize damage.

In particular, forecasting work will focus on major event areas across the country, ensuring information is continuously updated, close to reality, effectively serving the organization and ensuring safety for outdoor activities during the holidays.
